How much money do you have in your RZR? And pics...........

Yesterday marked 1 year since Veedrivens girl had her accident in Parker while staying at my place. Not a roll just put the RZR on its side and put her hand out to break the fall. She hit a washout in the trail. Same trail I had my RZR accident on and realized how important safety equipment is.

How do those work? Does the Velcro end hook on the steering column and you put your hands through the loops at the other end?

the velcro end goes on your wrist and the loop end goes over the metal buckle on your seatbelts, so when you unlatch the belt it comes off and you can get out with them on your wrist. you adjust the length so your arm cant get outside the vehicle.

So I'm gonna bit the bullet and get a rzr only question is I'm going to use it in Havasu 99% of the time. Is it worth getting the turbo one or just staying with the 10000? What do you guys think that have them?

You don't need the turbo IMO. My N/A hauls ass for what I'm going to do. Plus I can supposedly get 131 HP out a N/A motor for less than what the turbo car would cost TO UPGRADE. It's not worth the 28k IMO

That's what I'm thinking but I will kick myself in the ass if I start dunning I'm sure. Lol

I picked up a 16 xp4 1000 the Saturday before Thanksgiving. We went out three times over the week. Loved it. I did the full aluminum doors that Polaris offers now. They were $900, I figure I will sell them for $600 when I go aftermarket. I really wanted doors for the week as I have a 3 year old and a 6 year old in the back seat. Has anyone done window nets? I am concerned about by my wife and daughters hands.

Always wondered why they don"t come with them at least as a option, guess arms are easy to fix.

I wouldn't do the turbo. The 1,000 has plenty of power and I personally have no faith in a turbocharged Polaris engine. Save your money and buy the ext warranty and a half dozen belts

If you have the bank to buy the turbo, sure why not. But I will tell you this, you shouldn't feel like you need it. Mine gets used in havasu, but it gets driven in glamis! I have not been disappointed with its performance one bit. But, if I was buying one today (turbo wasn't avail when I bought mine) I would buy the turbo just cuz it does kick ass. But again, trust me- the non turbo kicks plenty of ass bone stock!

I have a new 1000 and use it mostly in the dunes. This car has plenty of power for the bigger hills and bowls.
In Havasu it is hard to find places to really push the machine because of the way the trails are and big rocks.

This is kinda what I was thinking. When we went out I never really went over 15-20 out in the hills.

Look at it this way, your girls getting breast implants. She can take and get and be comfortable with 450 CCs but maybe you should just do 350 CCs.

What I hear about the Turbo 4 2016 is not just the turbo but other up grades also. Shocks brakes frame etc... Maybe the non turbo 2016 has these up grades, I don't know.

I just put 100 miles on my RZR all in the sand and have never had a hill or a bowl that I can not get up. Recently I put a friends sand tires on it and it felt like I had more go power not less. I was going up hills much faster than with the stock tires and higher in the bowls with less throttle. I have two seat model (2016). I am sure there is a hill I can not get up but so far very happy with the power.

A 1000 4 seat car on hardpack is fine - it doesn't have the turbo clutching system.

but when you put on decent sized paddles its dog in the sand.

- and when you take a loaded up 4 seat car in the dunes - the big ones - you start loosing belts.

Just bought the Ripp Tied clutch upgrade which uses a much bigger arctic cat belt and bigger diameter primary and secondary.

Acts like a lower gear with same ultimate 1-1 top so net net you gain a gear everywhere especially on the backshift.

The 2 seat cars are a blast and up to a certain diameter they respond well to paddles but 30"s that bite and float will defiantly take the edge off the NA car. Especially with 2 - 200+ pound dudes.

We've got 2 cars in the shop now being modded. We put a bilge blower inline in the fresh air intake to keep the clutch cool - but I prefer an open clutch with a half cover in glamis/ sand.

77 - totally believe it - the stock clutch and belt setup for sand with big wheels is just too small for these cars.
We put a bilge blower inline in the fresh air intake to keep the clutches cool and still lose them.

Do you know if he was running and open clutch or with a clutch cover? That clutch cover holds heat.

All the above is why I just upgraded the entire drive assembly with Boondocker snowmobile setup.

Should be about a 15 minute job on a RZR

5 min take off the cover
5 min use the tool on the secondary to take the old one off and to cut the belt shreds off
5 minutes to bolt etc cover back on.

The sand tires that I am using are 29 inch. I have a set of 27 inch sand tires and was wondering how they would work compared to stock??
